Taitung Red Oolong | Taitung

A beautiful batch of single origin, red oolong from Luye, Taitung, Taiwan

This imperial grade red oolong is incredibly fruity and is one of my favourite teas in my collection

It's produced by an internationally acclaimed Taiwanese oolong company that has been around for over 140 years

The quality is so high it can take boiling water and basically never be bitter
